International demand for elearning-training
elearning-training.com is the ultimate convenient training tool to support the education and training of Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration engineers.
The course covers design, installation and maintenance considerations, including advantages in using CO2, and functionality of the different refrigeration systems, including volatile secondary, volatile secondary with DX, volatile secondary/cascade, trans-critical and direct expansion.
This will be of great assistance to those already working with CO2 and those about to use these systems.
Interest in Carbon Dioxide technology has rapidly grown in the last few years as it provides exceptionally high refrigeration capacities for compressor size while CO2 itself is ozone friendly and has a low global warming potential (GWP) of 1.

CPD Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Courses
CPD Certified training provider, elearning-training.com is committed to providing world-class Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration learning material.
Regulations have further restricted the use of CFC and HFC refrigerants due to their damaging effect on the environment and the Industry believes that Carbon Dioxide technology will become even more important in the near future.
Star Refrigeration's experienced engineers have developed this Carbon Dioxide course.
The information about the use of CO2 in refrigeration systems was collected from many sources around the world and put together into a superior two-module course, including CO2 Fundamentals and CO2 Refrigeration System Basics.
Danfoss has also contributed to the development of the course by providing valuable learning material.
Star Refrigeration has been working on the development of CO2 technologies and solutions that reduce users' environmental impact and running costs for more than 15 years.
It has, over the years, collected many awards for pioneering environmentally friendlier technologies.
Star has played a leading role in the development of carbon dioxide refrigeration in the UK and overseas.
Andy Pearson, MD - Contracts of Star Refrigeration is also co-founder and chairman of The carbon dioxide interest group (c-dig).
This group was formed in Europe in July 2000 to provide a platform for the exchange of news, ideas, information and experiences between refrigeration engineers in industry and research/teaching organisations.
All this knowledge and shared experiences in the use of CO2 has been brought together to create this ground-breaking course, providing very clear and useful information about the use of CO2 as a refrigerant.
Students achieving an 80% or more in the final test will receive a Diploma certified by CIBSE and the Construction CPD International Service.
